William E. Hellerstein, a professor at Brooklyn Law School, is sympathetic as a matter of public policy but doubts that existing case law makes secrecy agreements in even child sexual abuse cases criminal.
Among the observations in the six-page report (price: $750) is that although Google has "the most powerful ad network online," the company's "corporate insularity results in biases toward secrecy and its existing search technology, and weakens Google in supporting industry ecosystems based on its platform".
In addition, some suboptimal schemes with low computational complexity also have better secrecy performance than existing schemes.
This combined approach has not been considered previously in the literature and has the potential of achieving a higher secrecy rate than existing non-linear and linear precoding algorithms as well as an improved BER performance as compared to prior art.
The performance metrics to characterize the secrecy performance from different perspectives in existing works can be classified into two types: the secrecy outage probability and the achievable secrecy rate.
We are aware of only one existing scheme, MiniSec [10], that provides for secrecy of broadcast (and indeed of unicast) messages in wireless sensor networks.
Simulation results show that the proposed non-linear precoders outperform existing precoders in terms of BER and secrecy-rate performance.
Rather than as a substitute to existing solutions, these approaches could achieve better data secrecy if combined with conventional security techniques.
Firstly, this is different from some existing works, see, e.g., [19, 20], where the system secrecy rate was maximized.
Thereafter, Goldin never filed another patent and the wider magical community of America began to feel that their profession, with its peculiar balance of publicity and secrecy, wasn't well served by the existing protections offered under American law.
